Crown Princess Mette-Marit attended a celebration of the bunad – the Norwegian traditional folk costume – at the Farmers' Youth Society (Bondeungdomslaget - BUL) in Oslo. The Crown Princess was welcomed by mayor Marianne Borgen, who was wearing the jubilee costume for Oslo. The Norwegian national costume bunad is currently in the running of making it to one of these UNESCO lists.
In an effort to preserve and strengthen the traditions of the bunad, five non-governmental organizations in Norway have banded together to nominate the bunad for Intangible Cultural Heritage status through UNESCO, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization.
Mette Marit always looks stunning in folk costume. So do all the other ladies too. Norway really has beautiful costumes.
